sorry for the delay and the mistakes. I will come back to fix a few, right now i just wanted to post . let me know what you all think
How he managed to take her in his arms from her house to the restaurant with only a slight blush. He didn't know. In fact, He spent the whole sadly short ride there, trying to breathe and not think of how he much he loved to hold her.
Once they arrived and she jumped out his arms. She found it weird that there wasn't anyone there" Aren't there going to be cameras or paparazzi? I assumed this was to make everyone see we are together " she exclaimed confused as they were completely alone in the restaurant. Even the waiters were hidden.
" I figured this made it more real. if it was a real date we wouldn't want everyone around us. We can then take a few pictures to show but for now it's just you and me and the employes obviously " he covered
She seemed a little skeptical but accepted it. " Okay, and you are right. I would hate to have all your fans and the press spoiling our dinner. This is kind of nice for a fake first date but I didn't expect less from you " she teased him."Always such a romantic "
" Thank you, " he said blushing
He pulled her chair and she sat, then it was followed by a few awkward smiles a deafening silence. Neither had so far been on a date either real or fake. This was totally new for both. Gathering all his superhero strength he began preparing to slide the conversation according to his plans. He wanted to reveal that he knew her identity , that he was Adrien and that he wanted to be with her since their feelings were mutual. Casually, he began " So, tell me one of your secrets "
Marinette biggest secret was that she was Ladybug but she couldn't tell him so she decided to trust with another of her secrets" I could tell you a few stories about some things I did for Adrien that completely embarrassed me and I haven't told anyone. You have to promise not to tell anyone "
The blond forgot his plan immediately and nodded incentivizing her to continue
"There is the time I wrote him a letter but mixed it up with a recipe for laxatives. Worse was that he actually was kind enough to get it for me. But that wasn't the only time I messed up writing. Oh, no! On valentines day I read a poem , he wrote and thinking it was for me I replied back but forgot to sign it. It was a pink heart shape card" His green eyes went wide remembering it but she didn't notice and continued " when it comes to talking I don't do much better. Once he asked me to join him on a ride with him and I refused. Another time he pulled a prank on me and it backfired badly, long story short at the end I lied to him by telling him I liked him only as a human. who says stuff like that? But that isn't even the worse. once I left a completely embarrassing message on his voice mail ."
" You left him a voicemail ? "he asked puzzled. Of all the things she said that for him was the one that stuck the most since he never heard any voicemail from her
" Yes. I even had to steal his phone to stop him from listening to it "
"You stole his phone ?" he asked shocked and fearing the worst asked " Did you saw his photos folder ?"
"What? No. I only deleted the message to save my honor and then gave the phone back. I called him" hot stuff" . There was no going back from that. Either I deleted the message or I would have to move to china under a new name "
He sighed in relieved. So she didn´t see all the Ladybug images on his phone. He was a little baffled that Marinette stole it but he understood. She was only trying to avoid being embarrassed. He imagined the message must have been really bad for her to resort to stealing so he let it slide. If it was that bad he was glad he didn't hear it. Although she could just ask him not to.
The conversation died out as the waiters come around and they ordered. The date went well with lots of laughter and a few eyes roles from all the food-related puns.
Suddenly after they finished eating, one of the waiters decided to put some romantic music.
" May I have this dance ?" Adrien asked fearing the no.
To his surprise, he heard her say "Yes, you may "
He blinked in shock as she extended her hand to him. Nervously and pretty sure he was shaken, he grabbed it.
Immediately he pulled her closer and they began dancing. First at a reasonable distance but as the songs kept playing it got smaller and smaller. until they were close enough for her to put her head on his shoulder. With her in his arms, he felt happy. He felt like they belonged." Marinette there is something I have to tell you. " He whispered
This was it. He would now come clean and reveal everything.
" Me too. I wanted to thank you. You have been such a good friend and listened to me mumbling about Adrien. Fake dating you hasn't been all that bad. "
" It hasn't, has it ?" He asked hopeful
" This has been fun but I think I will prefer to date Adrien and thanks to you, I will. I was so scared you would tell him about my crush or all the embarrassing things I told you. If he knew, I would be mortified but you didn't and instead, you listened to me. You really are a great friend. It feels so good to be able to trust you"
" A great friend, hum ? " he repeated with slum shoulders. After all that work, he still was a friend? Worse now would be if he told her his identity. She would hate him, for sure. She hated his pranks and he was sure that was what she would think this was. He was so screwed.
"Well, yeah" she answered partially confused " So what was it that you had to tell me ?"
" Just that you look wonderful tonight," he said
"Thank you " she answered blushing.
For the rest of the date. Despite him trying acting otherwise she could see Chat was for him, she asked "Are you okay, chat? "
"I'm just sad that this super date is almost over " he admitted while at the same time covering the main reason for his sadness
she chuckled " Don´t worry, we have many more fakes dates ahead of us. Even after we " break up " we can still hang out. I never expected this could be so much fun. You are a great guy"
